Configuring the Console Port
Use the System > Console menu to configure connection parameters for the
switch’s console port. You can access the onboard configuration program by
attaching a VT100 compatible device to the switch’s serial console port.
Management access through the console port is controlled by various parameters,
including a password (only configurable through the CLI), time outs, and basic
communication settings. Note that these parameters can be configured via the
web or CLI interface.
Parameters
The following parameters are displayed:
◆
Login Timeout – Sets the interval that the system waits for a user to log into
the CLI. If a login attempt is not detected within the timeout interval, the
connection is terminated for the session. (Range: 10-300 seconds; Default: 300
seconds)
◆
Exec Timeout – Sets the interval that the system waits until user input is
detected. If user input is not detected within the timeout interval, the current
session is terminated. (Range: 60-65535 seconds; Default: 600 seconds)
◆
Password Threshold – Sets the password intrusion threshold, which limits the
number of failed logon attempts. When the logon attempt threshold is
reached, the system interface becomes silent for a specified amount of time
(set by the Silent Time parameter) before allowing the next logon attempt.
(Range: 1-120; Default: 3 attempts)
◆
Silent Time – Sets the amount of time the management console is inaccessible
after the number of unsuccessful logon attempts has been exceeded.
(Range: 1-65535 seconds; Default: Disabled)
◆
Data Bits – Sets the number of data bits per character that are interpreted and
generated by the console port. If parity is being generated, specify 7 data bits
